Felipe Andrés Sánchez Varas has been competing for 17 years. His best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 4.15, set at Abierto W. A. Mozart 2010, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 56th in Chile. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
